STUTTGART: Mercedes-Benz has announced its individualisation programme MANUFAKTUR is now extended to the new EQS, the electric version of the S-Class.
Special paint finishes and high-quality interior refinements expand the possibilities for putting together an EQS to suit the owner's personal taste.
Below are some examples from the MANUFAKTUR range for the EQS:
> Nine MANUFAKTUR paints are available, including those familiar from the S-Class such as MANUFAKTUR vintage blue non-metallic or MANUFAKTUR kalahari gold magno (€7,021.00 each in Germany).
> As with the S-Class, there is the MANUFAKTUR Interior Package (from 11,007.50 euros). It is available for the EQS from Mercedes, also in combination with AMG Line interior, as well as the EQS from Mercedes-AMG. It is offered in combination with comfort suspension seats; availability depends on market.
The front and rear seats are finished in nappa leather and feature intricate diamond quilting.
Nappa leather in a MANUFAKTUR colour is also used for the armrests in the doors, the centre console and the lower section of the instrument panel. The MANUFAKTUR colours tobacco brown, mystic red and rosé grey are new. Another highlight is the MANUFAKTUR steering wheel covered by hand in nappa leather, colour-coordinated with the respective interior colour.
The high-pile floor mats are edged in nappa leather. The floor mats and head restraint cushions are embroidered with the Mercedes-Benz star or the Mercedes-AMG logo.
The illuminated door sill trims bear the lettering of the respective brand and a MANUFAKTUR exclusive pattern. The centre console is adorned with MANUFAKTUR lettering in a high-sheen chrome look. Executed in cursive script, it testifies to the label's claim to quality craftsmanship.
> The Emblem Package (from €1,487.50) is available for the standard interior with black seat upholstery and black carpet. High-pile floor mats and head restrain cushions are embroidered with the Mercedes-Benz star ton-in tone. Note that the package is offered in combination with AMG Line interior and not for Mercedes-AMG models and availability depends on market.
The MANUFAKTUR range was introduced a year ago. Back then, it was launched in exclusive model series such as the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé, the S-Class long-wheelbase version, and the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class..
Under the programme, selected materials are predominantly processed by hand, exclusive paint finishes and high-quality embellishments in the interior offer a wide range of options for an individual appearance. The German car maker said the individualisation range had been well received by customers.
A corresponding programme has already been available for the G-Class for several years: the "G manufaktur" presents its own selection of materials and colours specially adapted to the vehicle architecture.
